HYDRANGEAS 
Large-panicled (Hydrangea paniculata grandiflora). 
This is one of the finest of all shrubs, growing 
8 to 10 feet high, producing immense pyramidal 
panicles of white flowers. Blooms in August and 
September. 
Hydrangea Tree. Same as the above, confined to a 
single stem. 
Arborescens grandiflora alba. A recent introduction 
of great value. Blooms are of very large size; 
snowy white. A valuable acquisition, as it begins 
to bloom in April and lasts almost the entire sum¬ 
mer. In form, the panicles are similar to the ten¬ 
der Hydrangeas.

Hortensis; flower-heads very large; pale rose or
